Apple Color 1.5 - Manual (Page 161)

The Timeline provides you with an interface for navigating through your project, selecting
shots to grade, and limited editing.
The Timeline and the Shots browser (in the Setup room) both provide ways of viewing
the shots in your project. The Shots browser gives you a way to nonlinearly sort and
organize your shots, while the Timeline provides a sequential display of the shots in your
program arranged in time. In this chapter, you’ll learn how to use the Timeline to navigate
and play through the shots in your program, as well as how to perform simple edits.
